Art makes me feel seen and heard without having to speak and I feel noticed and appreciated.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love fantastical art, or art that doesn't feel like it belongs in our current world. It's made of landscapes that are of another universe. I find them to be most beautiful to view.
Where do you find inspiration?Unfortunately my parents went through a nasty divorce. As a result I would escape into my comfort environment within my head where things were surreal and made up but it made me feel like I made sense.
What would you do with $25,000?I would like to further my projects in painting. Unfortunately canvases are expensive and I want to go big and immaculate but it's difficult to start up when everything is above what I can afford. I'd use the money to set up a studio for bigger projects beyond 18in x 24in canvases. It will allow me to store my art and create more impact full pieces.
